Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of transportation infrastructure on economic growth in 33 provinces in Indonesia by using spatial panel data. Spatial panel data combines spatial (spatial) and time (panel) dimensions in its analysis. Spatial panel data can accommodate heterogeneity between provinces and spatial autocorrelation in the model. The model used in this study is the Spatial Durbin Model (SDM), which includes the effect of spatial interaction between the dependent and independent variables and the lag of the independent variable. The study results show that transportation infrastructure, including capital accumulation, labor, length of national roads, ship visits to ports, and airport loading and unloading, positively and significantly affects economic growth in a province and its neighboring provinces through spatial interactions. However, the increase in capital accumulation and the length of national roads in neighboring provinces has a negative and significant effect on economic growth in a province. This research recommends several policies to enhance the development of transportation infrastructure in Indonesia, such as encouraging cooperation between the government and the private sector, increasing the availability and quality of the workforce, and improving the existing transportation infrastructure. Transportation infrastructure development must focus on connectivity, quality, capacity, equity, and inclusiveness between islands and regions to increase collaboration, efficiency, reliability, and prosperity in the regional economy.

Abstract

The study of the use of social media in the business world is becoming an increasingly attractive theme for business people and academics because the platform has the potential to increase business success. This study aims to investigate the effect of marketing activities that utilize social media features on interest in buying cosmetic products. This influence is thought to be mediated by the level of customer trust. A structural equation model (SEM) is established to examine the causal connection between the three variables. This model consists of four hypotheses, which will be tested using a sample of 200 quantitative data. The ordinal data was obtained from Wardah respondents who were asked to take part in an online survey by selecting 5 perception scales from 19 question items. After the survey data is declared valid and reliable and meets the Goodness of Fit requirements, the hypothesis is tested using the T-test criteria. The PLS software used to carry out all of these tests informs that all hypotheses are accepted, namely that Social Media Marketing activities have a positive and significant effect on Purchase Intention, both directly and indirectly, namely through Customer Trust. This significant indirect effect means that Social Media has a positive and significant effect on Customer Trust, and Customer Trust has a positive and significant effect on Purchase Intention. In other words, Customer Trust significantly mediates the influence of Social Media on Purchase Intention.
